| Reverse description | The reverse displays the two-character legend 三多 (Tam Đa, meaning 'Three Abundances') in raised relief at upper left and upper center of the field, rendered in traditional Chinese regular script. The central field features a richly detailed auspicious composition: a decorative vase or censer with floral branches rising from it, flanked by a coral branch on the right and additional symbolic objects at lower left, all representing the Daoist 'Three Abundances' of longevity, prosperity, and numerous offspring. The flat, slightly convex field bears characteristic casting marks, and the design is framed by a plain rim without a sunburst border. |
